Gwrych Castle is a major landmark in Abergele, and along the North Wales coast, so the desire of The Gwrych Castle Preservation Trust is to include as many local people in the work, restoration and function of the Castle as possible. Diane Woodrow, our Education and Community Engagement Officer, has been busy getting many local people involved. Wednesday 4th July was the culmination of six months of hard work with 16 pupils from years 8&9 at Emrys ap Iwan school.
After 50 years of uncertainty and having fallen into a perilous state-of-disrepair, the future of one of Wales’s most important and fairytale-like country houses, that was set to become a royal residence, is now secure.
Today was to be the auction date for the castle. Last week, following the trust’s formal offer to purchase prior to auction, the castle was withdrawn from sale. The trust is aiming to complete the purchase in May. Thank you for your support.
